This year the Helen O' Grady Drama students are going to perform their end of year plays at the school's prestigious Prize Giving! This is a great honour and we are sure our wonderful students will make us proud!
One of Our Talented Drama Students is also an up and coming writer...
I was so impressed when I came across the Lindo Park Primary's School Newspaper. It is put together by a group of Grade 7's. One of our very talented Drama students submitted a wonderful article that she had written about our Drama Academy. She also included photos of our Parent Presentation which took place in June. Well Done to you M :-)
